Method
- Preheat the barbecue. Using an electric hand whisk, beat the butter until light and fluffy. Add the chopped garlic, lime juice, zest and the chilli, and beat until thoroughly combined.
- Using a spatula, scrape all the butter from the bowl and place in a pile on a sheet of clingfilm. Roll the butter into a sausage shape by wrapping completely in the clingfilm; twist the ends, roll the butter back and forth then chill.
- When ready to cook, use tongs to put the prawns in a single layer on the barbecue. Cover if you can, and cook the prawns on each side for 5-7 mins or until completely pink. When cooked, put them in a bowl and dot with cut rounds of the lime and chilli butter. Serve with crusty bread.
